Keeping Butts in Barstools

The Story

The only "Point of Party" advertising, CHIVE TV reaches consumers when they are positive, social and ready to spend.

While enjoying a beer at their favorite watering hole, theCHIVE founders John and Leo Resig were asked by a bartender, “Wouldn’t it be cool to have theCHIVE on TV?” Eighteen months later, CHIVE TV was born. Now, it features the best jaw-dropping, hilarious and shocking viral videos from theCHIVE.com. CHIVE TV is a free streaming entertainment channel that plays content through Roku or Apple TV on a five-hour loop with a fresh hour sprinkled in every Friday (just in time for the weekend).

CHIVE TV was specifically designed so the content requires no audio to keep the laughter - and the conversations going - whether it’s at a bar, restaurant or party.
